Tolerance is the acceptable amount of dimensional variation that still allows a part to perform as designed.
Any process will have variation and depending on the severity of the function some tolerance will be very small. For example the sheet metal thickness on portion of a space shuttle will have a much tighter tolerance than the thickness of a piece of lumber to build a house. Tighter tolerance of processes typically are related to more process control (e.g. money) thus designs should be fully vetted with process team before placing on a drawing.
Answer: The movement of tectonic plates
Explanation:
Tectonic plates are the part of the earth's crust that both the ocean and land rest on. These plates are constantly moving as a result of currents in the mantle.
These movements cause stress on the surface which has the effect of fracturing rocks and thereby creating/ forming faults in the earth's crust. Sometimes faults form when these plates move away from each other and sometimes they are formed when they push into each other.

Answer:
a) 
Explanation:
a) Let consider that heat pump is reversible, so that the Coefficient of Performance is:



The minimum heat received by the house must be equal to the heat lost to keep the average temperature constant. Hence:

The minimum power supplied to the heat pump is:
